<h1>tr2delta</h1><p><span class="helptopic">Convert homogeneous transform to differential motion</span></p><p>
<strong>d</strong> = <span style="color:red">tr2delta</span>(<strong>T0</strong>, <strong>T1</strong>) is the differential motion (6x1) corresponding to
infinitessimal motion from pose <strong>T0</strong> to <strong>T1</strong> which are homogeneous
transformations. <strong>d</strong>=(dx, dy, dz, dRx, dRy, dRz) and is an approximation
to the average spatial velocity multiplied by time.

</p>
<p>
<strong>d</strong> = <span style="color:red">tr2delta</span>(<strong>T</strong>) is the differential motion corresponding to the
infinitessimal relative pose <strong>T</strong> expressed as a homogeneous
transformation.

</p>
<h2>Notes</h2>
<ul>
  <li>D is only an approximation to the motion T, and assumes
that T0 ~ T1 or T ~ eye(4,4).</li>
